Please check this site weekly for announcement and links to web sites specific to that week's topic covered in class and lab. Also please inform me of interesting links you find that I can add to these pages. The links will lead you to data and information that will greatly help in your decision of a research topic. See Class Notes for course logistics. Introduction: Earth scientists are increasingly called upon to evaluate past, present and future environmental changes on both local and global scales. They can be called upon to predict the long-term stability of hazardous waste sites or to mitigate the effects of natural disasters. Vital to evaluating and predicting environmental change is an understanding of the origin and evolution of topographic features and the role of groundwater in the environment. Geomorphology is concerned with the evolution of landscapes and the earth surface processes that form and modify them. Since the land surface is located at the interface of the earth's lithosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere, geomorphology is necessarily interdisciplinary. In addition to the natural forces modifying landscapes, anthropogenic forces contribute to surface modification and will be included in the study of geomorphology

22. East Yorkshire Coast - Geology And Geomorphology
    Geology and geomorphology of the East Yorkshire Coast, UK.  
    http://www.fortunecity.com/greenfield/ecolodge/25/
    
    Extractions: web hosting short URLs photo sharing These pages are mainly about the relationship of the visible landforms of the Yorkshire Coast to the underlying geology and the geomorphic processes that have shaped them. The landforms and geology have themselves affected the human use of the coast, from settlement and transportation patterns to economic activities such as mining and tourism. While virtual field trips present few dangers please take appropriate safety measures on real trips and follow the Geological Society code of practice. Everyone can do geology! For the purposes of this page I have included the stretch of coast from the river Tees in the north to the river Humber in the south. Strictly speaking the Yorkshire border is at Staithes, a few kilometers south of the river Tees and thus a small part of Cleveland has been annexed. The river Tees however is the northern boundary of the lower Jurassic (liassic) outcrops and thus a more "geological" boundary than the county boundary. In the north the cliffs at Boultby rise to 203m, the highest in Britain though much altered by

    Extractions: Principal References Based upon original printed compilations by Ernst H. Kastning, Associate Professor of Geology, Radford University. Additional revsions and HTML programming by Ira Sasowsky and Paula Dungjen, Dept. of Geology, University of Akron. This bibliography provides a handy list of some important, standard references on karst and cave geology. Most works are in English, and this is not an exhaustive bibliography on the subject; however, it serves as a key to works that in turn lead the researcher to additional material. The intent is to provide a selected list of primary sources to those who are relatively unfamiliar with karst research. This edition contains 124 citations and 6 journals. Listings such as this one are inherently biased due to the background of the persons who compile them. Undoubtably many worthy publications have not been placed on this list. For this, we apologize, and hope that the presented list will be of use to those who view it. The bibliography is arranged as follows: Textbooks on karst and speleology Monographs that introduce the principles of karstic landform development, the origin of caves, and the geomorphic, hydrologic, and geochemical processes of karst. Emphasis is placed on texts originally written in the English language or on foreign language books translated into English.

Miller Geomorphology has undergone a dramatic change in scope and philosophy over the last several decades. It has expanded from focusing merely on the evolutionary development of landforms to being a more applied discipline, linked with others in solving problems associated with global change and environmental stress. Today’s students must understand the processes involved in landform creation. Even those examining the subject historically need to grasp surficial process mechanics before analyzing the effects of past climatic or tectonic phenomena or predicting those of the future. Process Geomorphology provides an accessible introduction to the subject and assumes only a minimal background in physical or historical geology. Whether approaching geomorphology from the perspective of hydrology, engineering, geology, pedology, forestry, or any other earth science, the process approach makes this text a practical choice. A wealth of photos and diagrams aids in understanding the concepts presented in the text. The authors include an extensive bibliography for readers who wish to pursue a particular topic in greater depth. Bloom, Geomorphology, 3/E

More recent geologic features - sand dunes, rivers, soils, lake basins, and alluvial fans, to name a few - are in most cases still undergoing formational processes. The response of these features to recent changes in climate and land use makes geomorphology an important tool for understanding our changing global climate and the effects of our increasingly intensive use of the landscape.

For full treatment, see geology: Geomorphology Much geomorphologic research has been devoted to the origin of landforms . Such studies focus on the forces that mold and alter the primary relief elements of the terrestrial surface. These forces include tectonic activity and surficial earth movements (e.g., landslides and rockfalls). They also involve weathering and the erosion and deposition of the resulting rock debris by wind, glacial ice, and streams. In recent years, increasing attention has been given to the effects of human action on the physical environment as well. Many systems of classifying landforms have been devised since the late 19th century. Some systems describe and group topographic features primarily according to the processes that shaped or modified them. Others take additional factors into consideration (e.g., character of the surface rocks and climatic variations) and include the developmental stage of landforms as an aspect of their evolution over geologic time. Geomorphology is closely allied with a number of other scientific disciplines that are concerned with natural processes. Fluvial and coastal geomorphology rely heavily on fluid mechanics and sedimentology; studies of mass movement, weathering, wind action, and soils draw on the atmospheric sciences, soil physics, soil chemistry, and soil mechanics; research on certain landform types entails the principles and methods of geophysics and volcanology; and the study of human impact upon landforms relies on the disciplines of geography and human ecology.

    Extractions: Overview of the Course Geomorphology is the study of landforms and landscapes and the processes that have shaped them. It is a basic science, driven in part by curiosity about the landscapes in which we live and the distinctive landforms that occur within them. Geomorphology also has important practical applications, however, and is essential to understanding many natural hazards and many forms of environmental change. An understanding of geomorphic processes is directly relevant to fields such as geotechnical and environmental engineering, sedimentology, soil science, and archaeology. Modern geomorphology is often highly quantitative, but direct observation of processes and landforms in the field is still an essential component of geomorphological research.
